This is my entry for Japan Expo, i finished in 7th place, really unexpected xD, but im really happy |:> |:> . I think the tittle explain well the video, but if no:

The protagonist had a car accident and he wake up at the hospital. After recovering he back to school, and then he start to see strange things happening. But he noticed that someone is a little different from the others, so at the end of the school he decided to follow she (misaki), but he lost her trace, and after that..the horror began. But at the end he wake up on his bed, yeah.. all was a nightmare....or...

..so hope you like it guys!

Special Thanks to: Aimoaio, diegao94, Eake4, Hayden, Kyros, Veravero, Vovankoperativ and xDieguitoAMV for betatest this! :beer:
And thanks to gabber1991md for the awesome poster! :aimkissyface:

I knew it was the right thing to do by getting the download. I thought it was strange when I saw it on Youtube cause the last scene seemed to be missing something but I can see it now on the download. :P Though 1:03 is still my favourite by far. Nice one. XD

The colour theme you chose is pretty cool, and I like how you kept it consistent throughout the AMV. Those subtle effects really add to the atmosphere and gives the video a much creepier feel than usual, it does make me wonder how many people will notice it though (like at 1:31) but I'm sure if they can notice it, they'll appreciate it more than if someone just told them about it. Anyway my only minor complaint is that some sections felt a little slow, in particular the area around 2:16. I can see you tried to fix that by adding some more fx and it does help a bit with the pacing and to convey your concept this way so it's not really a problem. The colouring and lighting effects were also done pretty well. I really enjoyed this one madara, great job! :up: And congrats on 7th place!

I actually noticed Misaki in the last scene even on youtube. I did not see any subtitles though :sweat:

This amv has probably the best effects I've ever seen since they are really visible but they fit just too well. If I didn't see the anime I'd maybe even believe that you only did the transitions.

Awesome job and congrats :up:

I don't feel your story came across right. I didn't get it even after watching it three times... and I don't think I should have to read the description to get it.
The effects used really added to the "horror" aspect, but I feel that's all there was...some the scenes just didn't even feel right for me, and more dull. Maybe its because I like my horror AMVs having some psychological feel to it.. I'm really not sure. Just didn't like it D:
